Post FUE: Scabs with Hair Follicle???


Recommended Posts

Hi all

I had FUE done by Dr Bhatti in 23 Nov (approx 1500 follicles) for hairline.

Today is approx day 15, and a lot of scabs have started come off.

The only concern is that almost every scab that has come off has at least 1-2 hair follicles in it.

 

I have emailed Dr Bhatti, and awaiting his reply.

But I wanted to know your experiences if possible.

Just concerned that I am loosing my hair grafts.

I have attached photos.

 

Thank you in advance

When the scabbing and crusting comes off post-op, the graft hair typically comes out with it.

 

And that's what it looks like, just the graft hair that came off with the crusts.

 

Congrats on your recent procedure...;)

Looks normal , don't sweat it, this is a universal anxiety.

 

Rule of thumb is no blood then no worries, and after 10 days you're in the clear anyhow unless you traumatize the scalp.
